Subscriber’s activity not reflecting under Usage metrics Analytics Hub

[Sidharth_2145]

Hi

I’ve created a listing under my exchange and added one of my friend as subscriber, but still the activity that he is performing on table of the linked dataset, they are not getting reflected in the usage metrics window of my exchange so wanted to understand what could be the possible issue for this? Please guide, Thanks.! 

NOTE - I’m doing cross project testing also there are no publisher I’m the only analytics hub admin.

Hi @Sidharth_2145,

Welcome to Google Cloud Community!

Analytic Hub lets you monitor your listing’s user metrics like daily subscriptions, daily executed jobs, number of subscribers for each organization, etc.

I tried replicating the same scenario and was able to monitor subscriber's usage metrics like total jobs executed and total bytes scanned.

Here are some suggestions that may help resolve the issue:

• Subscriber’s Project ID: Based on the replication I made, I was able to monitor subscriber’s usage metrics as shown above by letting the subscriber use their own Project ID while executing jobs from the linked dataset. Since the linked dataset is created within the subscriber's project, querying should be done within their project.

  Sample query:

  SELECT * FROM Subscriber’sProjectID.dataset.table;

• Roles and Permissions: Ensure subscriber has the appropriate roles and permissions granted by the administrator to properly use the listing and be able to perform applicable jobs. You can refer to this documentation for reference.

• Usage Metric limitations: There are limitations on Usage Metrics, you can refer to this documentation and check if your listing does not have any of those limitations.

• Configuration: Ensure your Data Exchanges, Listings and Subscriptions are properly configured.

If the issue persists, I recommend reaching out to Google Cloud Support for further assistance, as they can provide insights into whether this behavior is specific to your project.
